Abstract
The biocompatible metal-organic framework [Zn4(GA)4(H2O)4] · 4H2O (H2GA = glutamic acid) was used as a container for anthocyanins from Hibiscus sabdariffa in composite films based on kappa-carrageenan and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. The obtained composite materials showed high antioxidant activity and ability to undergo pH-induced color change upon reactions with gaseous products of pathogen development and, hence, possess the potential for practical application as functional materials for food packaging.
